Marchesi di Barolo's 2022 Maraia is a Barbera from Monferrato, the hillside zone in Piedmont that sits south of Alba and has long been the varietal's home. Barbera here tends toward brightness and acidity rather than weight, with a natural earthiness that reflects the region's clay and limestone soils.

A bright and juicy red with a savory edge to its vivid red- and dark-fruited aromas and hints of spices and earth. Medium-bodied and dry, with a supple, lingering mouthfeel. Drink now. (James Suckling, February 2025)
